FS#1283 Manage subscriptions

other

2007-11-05simonxml

I have persuaded our company CEO to blog using our wiki, and I want to subscribe all the users (207) to it. I tried manually editing <pagename>.mlist, but it doesn't work. I would
love to have a more general subscription management facility that allows me to see who is subscribed and add and remove subscribers.

Thanks.

One simple suggestion: use a mailing list software to create the list of all your users, then create a pseudo-user in the wiki with his mail address being the one of the mailing list. Then all users will receive page or namespace changes by mail notifications.

Of course this does not replace a real subscription list management plugin for DokuWiki, but it will work... tomorrow.

Should have tested: it works like expected by adding usernames to the .mlist file.

I check the :groupns:start page, I'm subscribed to the namespace. Works for a single
page too. One user per line.

And also, to see the subscribers give a try to the listabo plugin (http://www.dokuwiki.org/plugin:listeabo).

Hello
I tried to add manually the subscriptions but it doesn't work. Why is there "every" after each name?
I am on Anteater.
Thanks

This "every" now distinguishes if a mail notification has to be sent after each change or if changes should be grouped and sent through a digest of several changes once in a while. You should be able to add subscriptions by manually editing the .mlist files in the meta directory, but it's far easier from the DokuWiki interface.

Thank you !
I have another question, my .mlist file looks like :
adminweb every
jenn%5ffal every
audr%5fgeo every

I think the %5f comes from the fact that we use "jenn fal" as a username, with a space between name and firstname. Can it cause troubles?

Dunno, never had usernames with spaces. Try with a username without spaces as this for sure works like a charm.

I tried with a point like jenn.fal and it did jenn%5efal ...
I also tried without spaces but it didn't work !
Actually I have another problem, the notification isn't working at all. It only send a mail to the first subscriber on the page ! The others who had registered don't get any mail !
